All,

I have had the same question and could find no specific answers posted online.  Given that the vaccine manufacturers stated that there is no evidence that this vaccine prevents asymptomatic spread, I suspect that standard quarantine applies until more guidance comes out.

I am imagining to do your civic duty to quarantine exposures, those with symptoms and positives reguardless of the vaccine status. It is not going to be a cure-all, and you wouldn’t want people exposed.  Just like the flu vaccine isn’t perfect we can’t expect this to be magic, or a virus not to mutate….

Happy Hump Day,

Curious what others will do with people that have been vaccinated and then have a household exposure. Will they still quarantine or could they work under modified quarantine?
